Summary
ОглавлениеTwo centuries of World deforestation have
warmed the coastal lands they cleared and let their
soils steal the rain once borrowed by their trees, to add
more to soil's moisture store and increase its run-off.
Sealed roads and roofs and runways now drain
more stolen rain into our rising seas.
Rain stolen from our lower falls
inland, so less runs off to
feed our inland rivers
as they dry.
Tony Mount has a sixty year interest in
forest fire ecology and is author of
Tasmania's Soil Dryness Index
